Update Version 1. 4. 4

- Russian Translation - thanks to Curodole

Update Version 1. 4. 3

- MCM menus not showing up: this issue has been fixed. My deepest apologies to everyone who has had trouble with MCM menus not showing up and thanks to the contributors in the comments who pointed this out. This mod and the Experience Book mod were causing this. This issue has been fixed in both mods, so please make sure to update the two mods to their latest versions.

- Updated for Spell Research v2. 2. 3: The correction in the function "DecomposeItems" "if(RankAux > 5) [...]" has been copied over to the _SR_Quest script.

Also, the correction for analyzing spells has been copied over from the UI Extensions Patch in the _SR_Quest script - kudos to ManEatingSalmon

- Performance enhancement: big thanks to Nightfallstorm from the Ultimate Add-On Patch: the performance improvement that he suggested has been taken over and adapted slightly so that researching of spells should now work much faster, especially when using multiple spell packs

- Paper Rolls consumption: Correction for consumption of paper rolls has been copied over from the Ultimate Add-On Patch - kudos to Nightfallstorm

- Additional options for MCM menu:

- Option to enable or disable the consumption of Magicka and to advance time when crafting theses or researching spells

- Option whether a Research Journal is required to display the Spell Composing menu

- Option to configure whether it should be possible to display the Spell Composing menu while sneaking / running / in combat / when other menus

- Lock Aspect Ratio: Width and height can now be changed simultaneously

- Option to not override the "Compose Thesis" and "Compose Spell" options in the Research Journal's dialog box

Make sure to use the _SR_Quest script as included in this mod if you want to use these options. They will not work if another mod is overriding the _SR_Quest script.

- If you are using Nezerroth's Enhanced Graphics for Spell Research Experience Book mod, make sure to load it after the Spell Compo
